eSCM-CL Certified Organizations

An Evaluation for Certification is a third-party external evaluation of a client organization's capability.
These are the only Capability Determination methods that can lead to certification by ITSqc, and should be used
when an organization wants a public record of its capabilities. A Full Evaluation for Certification is based on
evidence of the client organization's implementation of all 95 Practices in the eSCM-CL. A Mini Evaluation for
Certification is based on evidence of the client organization's implementation of a subset of the Practices in the eSCM-CL.

Client organizations who choose to be evaluated for eSCM certification may make use of the Mini Evaluation Capability Determination method, and may achieve certification at a particular Capability Level or in particular Capability Areas of the eSCM-CL.

Client organizations who choose to be evaluated for eSCM certification make use of the eSCM Capability Determination method, and may achieve certification at a particular Capability Level or particular Capability Areas of the eSCM-CL.

Certification was designed to allow you to continue your organizational improvement. Organizations seek eSCM-CL Certification as an indicator of their increasing capability to successfully manage sourcing relationships.

While certification is an option for some client organizations, many will chose to use the eSCM-CL to perform external Evaluations or internal Self-appraisals to benchmark and improve their sourcing capabilities or to guide internal process improvement.

The following tables show the status of eSCM-CL Certified Organizations.

Current eSCM-CL Certified Organizations

Current eSCM Certifications are those certifications that are currently in force, having been granted by the
ITSqc Certification Board.

Suspended eSCM Certifications are those certifications that have been temporarily suspended, pending a surveillance audit (or mini-evaluation) of a certified organization. This surveillance audit (or Mini-evaluation) can occur in the event of changes significantly affecting the activity and operation of the certified organization (such as change of ownership, changes in personnel or equipment), or if analysis of a complaint or any other information indicates that the certified organizations no longer complies with the requirements of the eSCM Model.

Expired eSCM Certifications are those certifications whose certification validaity dates have been reached. When approved by the
ITSqc Certification Board, Certificates of Capability are issued by ITSqc for a period of two years. Certificates of Capability do not automatically extend or renew.

Withdrawn eSCM Certifications are those certifications which have been withdrawn, for cause, by the
ITSqc Certification Board. Typically, certifications remain in effect for their entire period of validity, except as addressed by a change in status, complaint, or non-compliance and a resulting mini-evaluation which results in the withdrawal of the eSCM Certification by ITSqc.

Certification Process

Only a Full Evaluation for Certification or a Mini Evaluation for Certification leads to ITSqc certification. These are third-party external evaluations of an organization's capability, based on evidence of the organization's implementation of either the eSCM-SP (for service providers) or the eSCM-CL (for clients). Certification should be sought when an organization wants a public record of its capabilities.
